Seems to have fixed the problem regarding the Internet Gateway disappearing (will report back in a few days after a few reboots)

However, the WPA issue in XP SP2 still seems to be abundant irrespective of whether I use the windows config or the Netgear software

The OTHER way for me to get the icon back (much easier than having to reset the router) is to go to a command prompt and ipconfig /release then ipconfig /renew

Pleeeease..someone has to know :P
